As the vast majority of you will already know, revalidation has now become a reality. From 1 April, 2016, every nurse and midwife will have to demonstrate their ability to meet the standards of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) code through the revalidation process.
The most significant change to nurses’ regulation in a generation was confirmed at the end of October — England, Scotland and Wales are ready for the implementation of NMC revalidation for nurses and midwives from April, 2016.
